They are the fastest way to have a proof of address and take about 2 weeks to come through (IME) You'll need one other proof too, you should have a water bill/CT there by now or soon so thats the two proofs done.
I'm not sure about the cost of your traveling, Thats high, but if thats what it is then thats what it is.The OR should look long term and see that you will be improving things at some time in the future.
You can do your driving licence online now.
I did it on the 24th December and my new licence came in the first post after New Year. It's really easy and if you have a passport you just enter your passport number and they do the identity check that way.
I had my previous licence nicked with my bag so I had to do the identity check but if you're just changing your address you may not even have to do that.All comments made and advice given are my own opinions and do not represent the views or advice of any debt advice organisation.

Thats useful to know SP, thanks:T
Its also a pretty hefty fine if your caught with a licence for the wrong address.:rolleyes:The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter0 -
Thanks everyone
I tried requesting a licence with change of address online yesterday and when I got to the passport number and had to stop because it's still packed away somewhere:rotfl: . I will find it out tonight.
So far I have no bills at this address, no mail what so ever in fact. I'm living with my girlfriend and her family so I don't get the utility bills. I'm sending off the forms to change my address with the bank today and I will call my credit cards tonight. When my credit cards send me my next statements though, they will show I have missed this months payments, and I won't get them untill the end of next month.
Can I use a letter from the bank or does it have to be a bill?A photographer see's with one eye closed what others fail to see with both eyes open.0
